Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It must
be replaced. Order Part No. WB02X10943 from
your GE supplier.
If the model is not vented to the outside, the
air will be recirculated through a disposable
charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and
odors.
The charcoal filter should be replaced when it is
noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6 to
12 months, depending on usage). See Optional
Kits, page 8, for more information.
